Adding spice to videos or skits

I have discovered that if I do not add twists to videos or skits, they can be a bit… boring. If my students are not inspired, they will stick to the minimum requirements for the most part. I have developed some different twists for two typical themes in foreign languages. The first is daily routine:

You woke up an hour late.

Your uniform is not clean.

You cannot fall asleep at night.

You have to help your little brother or sister get ready.

The second topic is travel. I used this for our train theme, but you could adapt it to an airport theme or travel in general.

You lost your luggage (or it was stolen)

Someone stole your passport, money, or credit card

The train arrives two hours late

Your friend wants to buy everything in the store, and y’all will arrive late to the train

You cannot find the correct platform

Do you add any problems or spice up your performances for kids? What themes do you add?
